The Head of Civil Service in Kano, Alhaji Abdullahi Musa, who supervised the final interview for the candidates, described the move as long overdue. “The state judiciary has been waiting for such a development,” he stated.
Musa urged the newly employed lawyers to uphold strong moral values and demonstrate hard work, selflessness, and the fear of God in the discharge of their duties.
He also reminded them of the privilege of their employment, considering the competitive nature of the current job market. “This is a great opportunity. I encourage you to reciprocate the gesture by being good ambassadors of Kano State,” he advised.
